EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu India Private Limited is executing BEE-SME program in
Muzaffarnagar Paper Cluster, supported by Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) with an overall
objective of improving the energy efficiency in cluster units.
Muzaffarnagar cluster is one of the largest SME paper clusters in India; accordingly this
cluster was chosen for energy efficiency improvements by implementing energy efficient
measures/technologies, so as to facilitate maximum replication in other paper units/clusters in
India. The main energy forms used in the cluster units are grid electricity, coal and biomass.
Rice husk, pith and bagasse are the major biomass used in the cluster. In few mills wood
chips are also used as a supplementary fuel.
Energy consumption (thermal energy & electrical energy) in Paper unit depends on capacity
of unit and raw material used in the unit. The paper mills in Muzaffarnagar cluster have
energy saving opportunities both in the process and utility side. During the energy audit
carried out, it was observed that a few paper mills were performing fairly well in terms of
energy efficiency. These mills have adopted the latest and energy efficient technologies
available both on the process and utility side. Still there are fairly large numbers of unit that
have potential to improve energy efficiency.
The Agro residue based paper mills use digester to cook the raw material. These digesters
are generally 14 feet to 16 feet in diameter. Bagasse and wheat straw are generally used as
raw material after de-pithing and/or cutting. Generally the steam used for cooking purpose is
at temperature of 180 deg C and 3.5 kg/cm2 of pressure. Once the agro residue is cooked in
digester the material is taken out by blowing down the digester. For digester blow down,
pressurized backwater is used. Since the digester is in a pressurized state, entire content
blows out from the digester. At this moment the condensate present flashes and gets
converted to steam, which is vented to the atmosphere. Recovery of flash steam has great
potential to save overall fuel consumptions.
It is recommended to install a heat recovery tank for collecting a flash steam and the hot
water can be used in process. A complete Digester Flash stem heat recovery system
including by pass system & plate heat exchanger will be required to install. Project
implementation will lead to save about 629.40 tonnes of fuel per year.
This DPR highlights the energy, environment, economic and social benefits of use of digester
blow heat recovery system in a paper unit. Recovery of heat from digester blow heat will lead
to reduction in an equivalent amount of fuel. This heat can be recovered to generate hot water
which in turn can be used for the lye mixture tank, potcher, showers, spray showers,
iv
hydropulpers and other hot water requirement areas. Recovery and utilization of this flash
steam will lead to reduction in overall steam consumption consequently saving fuel used in
the boiler.
This bankable DPR also found eligible for subsidy scheme of MoMSME for “Technology and
Quality Upgradation Support to Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises” under “National
Manufacturing and Competitiveness Programme”. The key indicators of the DPR including the
Project cost, debt equity ratio, monetary benefit and other necessary parameters are given in
table below:
S.No Particular Unit Value
1 Project cost ` (in Lakh) 19.78
2 Fuel Saving Tonne/year 629.40

The projected profitability and cash flow statements indicate that the project
implementation i.e. installation of digester blow heat recovery system in a paper mill
will be financially viable and technically feasible solution for paper cluster.

ABOUT BEE’S SME PROGRAM
Bureau of Energy Efficiency (BEE) is implementing a BEE-SME Programme to improve the
energy performance in 28 selected SMEs clusters. Muzaffarnagar Paper Cluster is one of
them. The BEE‟s SME Programme intends to enhance the energy efficiency awareness by
funding/subsidizing need based studies in SME clusters and giving energy conservation
recommendations. For addressing the specific problems of these SMEs and enhancing
energy efficiency in the clusters, BEE will be focusing on energy efficiency, energy
conservation and technology up-gradation through studies and pilot projects in these SMEs
clusters.
Major activities in the BEE -SME program are furnished below:
Activity 1: Energy use and technology audit
The energy use technology studies would provide information on technology status, best
operating practices, gaps in skills and knowledge on energy conservation opportunities,
energy saving potential and new energy efficient technologies, etc for each of the sub sector
in SMEs.
Activity 2: Capacity building of stake holders in cluster on energy efficiency
In most of the cases SME entrepreneurs are dependent on the locally available technologies,
service providers for various reasons. To address this issue BEE has also undertaken
capacity building of local service providers and entrepreneurs/ Managers of SMEs on energy
efficiency improvement in their units as well as clusters. The local service providers will be
trained in order to be able to provide the local services in setting up of energy efficiency
projects in the clusters
Activity 3: Implementation of energy efficiency measures
To implement the technology up-gradation project in the clusters, BEE has proposed to
prepare the technology based detailed project reports (DPRs) for a minimum of five
technologies in three capacities for each technology.
Activity 4: Facilitation of innovative financing mechanisms for implementation of
energy efficiency projects
The objective of this activity is to facilitate the uptake of energy efficiency measures through
innovative financing mechanisms without creating market distortion.

1 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Brief Introduction about cluster
Muzaffarnagar is situated in Western Uttar Pradesh and is important industrial town with
paper, sugar and steel being the major products. Muzaffarnagar paper cluster has around 29
paper units. The entire paper cluster is geographically divided into three areas, namely Bhopa
Road, Jansath Road and Shamli in Muzaffarnagar district. The reason for such high
concentration of mills is easy availability of raw material in the area. Paper units are normally
having out-dated technologies characterized by inefficient energy and water management
systems. In terms of raw material usage, mills can be broadly put in two categories – waste
paper based and agro-waste based. Similarly, for finished products too, though bulk of the
mills produces only kraft paper, a few of them have started producing writing paper. These
mills are quite closely networked and successful development in one mill is very rapidly
replicated in large number of similar mills.
The total installed capacity of all the paper mills in Muzaffarnagar is approximately 542,700
MTPA. These mills are a mix of waste paper & agro. While 12 mills under the BEE SME
Program are agro-cum waste paper based, 16 of them are solely waste paper based and 1
mill which is recently established is agro based.
An important aspect of the mills here is that some of these units have a common business
operational structure due to fact that they share the same management. As such the cluster
based advantage is already being derived by most of these units. A large percentage of these
mills were set up in 80‟s and 90‟s in the small and medium sector.
The capacity utilization of all these mills ranges from 20% to 90%. Out of the total mills, 43%
are based upon both agro and waste material whereas 57% are waste paper based.
Classification can also be done based upon the product. While only 16% are involved in the
manufacture of only duplex board, a healthy 66% are into making Kraft paper only & 22%
make writing/printing paper along with small quantities of either duplex board or Kraft paper.
The paper mills in the Muzaffarnagar cluster use various types of fuels like coal, biomass, pet
coke etc. The primary fuel used in all the mills is coal and biomass. Rice husk, pith and
bagasse are the major biomass used in the cluster. In few mills wood chips are also used as
a supplementary fuel. Details of total energy consumption at Muzaffarnagar Paper cluster are
furnished in Table 1 below:

Energy usages pattern
Energy consumption (thermal energy & electrical energy) in Paper unit depends on capacity
of unit and raw material used in the unit. The paper mills in the Muzaffarnagar cluster use
various types of fuels like coal, biomass, pet coke etc. The primary fuel used in all the mills is
coal and biomass. Rice husk, pith and bagasse are the major biomass used in the cluster. In
few mills wood chips are also used as a supplementary fuel. The details are of the same are

General production process for paper cluster
Paper is a natural product, manufactured from a natural and renewable raw material, wood.
Wood is the primary raw material for the pulp and paper industry. Wood is made from
cellulose fibres that are bound together by a material called lignin. The paper industry in
Muzaffarnagar cluster uses either the waste paper or agro residue as a source of lignin
needed for paper manufacturing process. Recovered paper has become as important a
source of new paper as wood - recovered paper now accounts for more than half of the fibres
used in the production of paper. However, fibre cannot be usefully recycled endlessly; so
there is an ongoing need to feed the supply of recovered fibre with virgin fibre in the form of
agri residue. The papermaking process can be broadly divided into three stages:
Pulping
Papermaking
Finishing
Digester Blow Heat Recovery
5
PULPING
Paper is made from the cellulose fibres that are present in hardwood and softwood trees. In a
pulp mill, the fibres are separated from one another into a mass of individual fibres. Whether
using wood or recovered paper, the first step is to dissolve the material into pulp. Regardless
of the type of pulping process used, the wood or recovered paper is broken down into its
component elements so that the fibres can be separated. After separation, the fibres are
washed and screened to remove any remaining fibre bundles. The pulp may then be used
directly to make unbleached papers, or bleached for white papers. The water is then pressed
out and the residue is dried. The pulping results in a mass of individual fibres being produced.
In an 'integrated paper mill' the pulp will be fed directly to a paper machine. Alternatively, it will
be dried and pressed into bales ready for use as a raw material in paper mills.
The pulp-making process
1. Timber and debarking
2. Pulp is graded and classified according to: the method of the production (e.g. chemical
or mechanical pulp); the species of tree used (e.g. softwood or hardwood); and by
level of processing (e.g. bleached or unbleached). Pulp generated from recovered
paper is similarly graded.
Making Pulp from Agro residue
In chemical pulping, the Agro Residue (Baggasse)/Wood chips are cooked in a digester with
chemicals. Cooking removes lignin, breaking up the wood into fibres. The process results in a
slurry, where fibres are loose but intact and have maintained their strength. Generally,
chemical pulp is based on one of two processes: sulphate or sulphite. Most chemical pulp is
made by the alkaline kraft or sulphate process which uses caustic soda and sodium sulphate
to "cook" the wood chips. In the unbleached stage, a dark brown, but very strong pulp results
which can be bleached to a high brightness if required. The cooking chemicals are recovered
back to the process through evaporation and burning plants. Cooked pulp is washed and
screened to achieve more uniform quality.
Digester Blow Heat Recovery

Figure 4 Agro-residue Chemical Pulping Process
The alternative method is the sulphite pulping process. This method is based on an acid
cooking liquor process, and it is best suited for specialty pulp. The sulphite mills produce
easily bleached pulps, generally with hydrogen peroxide. These pulps fulfil today's demand
for "chlorine free" products in the disposables sector and also in printing and writing papers.
The yield in both chemical processes is much lower than in the manufacture of ground wood,
as the lignin is completely dissolved and separated from the fibres. However, the waste lignin
from the sulphate and some sulphite processes, can be burnt as a fuel oil substitute. In
modern mills, recovery boiler operations and the controlled burning of bark and other residues
makes the chemical pulp mill a net energy producer which can often supply power to the grid,
or steam to local domestic heating plants.
Making pulp from recovered paper
Recycled paper is a type of paper that completely or partially consists of recycled fibres.
These fibres can have very different origins and therefore also very different characteristics
when it comes to being a component in new paper. Newsprint, tissue and paperboard are the
products primarily produced using recycled paper as raw material. Collected paper must first
be sorted into different categories. The sorting can take place either directly in the paper mill
or at special sorting stations. How the sorting takes place depends to a large extent on how
the collection of the paper takes place, which varies from country to country. In most cases
bales or loose paper waste is transported to the pulper using conveyor belts. Before printed
paper, such as office waste and newspapers, can be processed into graphical paper grades,
the ink needs to be removed. There are two main processes for de-inking waste paper -
washing and flotation.
Digester Blow Heat Recovery
7
In the washing process the waste paper is placed in a pulper - a huge tank that liberates the
paper fibres from the paper web by agitation with large quantities of water - and broken down
to slurry. Staples and other undesirable material are removed by using centrifugal screens,
thereby diminishing the risk of damage in the processes that follow. Most of the water
containing the dispersed ink is drained through slots or screens that allow ink particles
through. The pulp does not pass through. Adhesive particles, known as „stickies', are
removed by fine screening.
In the flotation process the waste is made into slurry and contaminants are removed. Special
surfactant chemicals are added to the slurry, which produces froth on the top of the pulp. Air
is then blown into the slurry. The ink adheres to the bubbles of air and rises to the surface. As
the bubbles reach the top, a foam layer is formed that traps the ink. The foam is removed
before the bubbles break so the ink does not go back into the pulp.
When completed, the clean, useful fibre is piped to a storage chest and consequently to the
papermaking machine, while the excess materials are skimmed off or dropped through
centrifugal force into a sludge that is then burned for fuel, otherwise used or landfilled.
Pulpwood normally arrives at the paper mill in the form of very thick sheets and recovered
paper normally arrives in the form of large, compressed bales. Both these materials have to
be broken down so that the individual fibres they contain are completely separated from each
other. This process is performed in large vessels, known as „pulpers', where the raw materials
are diluted with up to 100 times their weight of water and then subjected to violent mechanical
action using steel rotor blades.
The resulting slurry (known as papermaking stock) is then passed to holding tanks. During
this preliminary stage, auxiliary chemicals and additives may be added. The auxiliary
chemicals are usually combined with the fibrous raw materials at levels from below 1% to 2%
and can be sizing agents, which reduce ink and water penetration, and process anti-foaming
agents. Common additives consist of clay, chalk or titanium dioxide that is added to modify
the optical properties of the paper and board or as a fibre substitute. The stock is then
pumped through various types of mechanical cleaning equipment to the paper machine.
PAPER MAKING
In the pulp and papermaking industry 95% of the water used is cleaned and reused on-site.
On the paper machine, more water is added to produce a fibre suspension of as little as 1-to-
10 parts fibre to 1000 parts water and the resulting mixture is passed into a head-box which
squirts it through a thin, horizontal slit across the full machine width (typically 2 - 6 m) on to a
moving, endless wire mesh.
Digester Blow Heat Recovery
8
Raw material fibres and chemicals (and 99 % of water) are pumped to the head box, which
feeds the stock evenly onto the wire section. This is a woven plastic mesh conveyor belt that
can be 35 metres long and as wide as the machine. As the paper stock flows from the head
box onto the wire, water is removed on this wire section by a mixture of gravity and suction in
a process known as sheet formation where the fibres start to spread and consolidate into a
thin mat, which is almost recognizable as a layer of paper on top of the wire mesh. The paper
machine can travel at speeds of up to 2000m/minute and by the time the paper stock has
traveled half way down the wire, a high percentage of water has drained away. By the time
the thin mat of fibres has reached the end of the wire section, it has become a sheet of paper,
although very moist and of little strength. It then passes to the press section.
This consists of a number of sets of heavy cylinders through which the moist paper passes.
More moisture is squeezed out and drawn away by suction. The paper then passes to the
drier section. This consists of a large number of steam-heated drying cylinders which have a
temperature of slightly over 100°c. Synthetic drier fabrics carry the web of paper round the
cylinders until the paper is completely dry.
Part way down the bank of drying cylinders is the size press, where a solution of water and
starch can be added in order to improve the surface for printing purposes. Instead of size, a
coater can be used which is what happens when coated papers are produced. At the end of
the drying process, the paper is smoothed using an "ironing" method, which consists of hot
polished iron rollers mounted in pairs, one above the other (calenders or soft calenders). This
also helps to consolidate, polish and glaze the surface of the paper.
Still traveling at very high speeds, the paper comes off the machine ready for reeling up into
large reels (also called parent reels), which can be cut or slit into smaller ones, according to
customer requirement. These large reels are produced and changed without any interruption
to the production process.
PAPER FINISHING
The characteristics, appearance and properties of paper and board are supplemented and
enhanced by their final treatments. These may be simple processes where the reel is slit into
a number of more narrow reels or cut into sheets or more complicated processes such as
coating.
Coating improves the opacity, lightness, surface smoothness, luster and colour-absorption
ability of paper. It meets exacting quality demands regarding surface smoothness. Coating
means that a layer is applied to the paper, either directly in the papermaking machine or
separately. Varieties of coated paper range from pigmented to cast-coated. The coat consists
Digester Blow Heat Recovery
9
of a mix of pigments, extenders such as china clay and chalk, and binders such as starch or
latex. In addition, various chemicals are added to give the paper the desired characteristics.
For even smoother paper surface, super-calendering is required. This is done primarily for
magazines and coated papers. The paper passes through rollers, which are alternately hard
and soft. Through a combination of heat, pressure and friction, the paper acquires a high
luster surface. The paper becomes somewhat compressed during the process and is
therefore thinner than its matt finished equivalent.

1.3 Existing technology/equipment
1.3.1 Description of existing technology
The Agro residue based paper mills use digester to cook the raw material. These digesters
are generally 14 feet to 16 feet in diameter. Bagasse and wheat straw are generally used as
raw material after de-pithing and/or cutting. The average cycle time of each digester is
approximately 11 - 12 hours and about 10 batches per day from different digesters are blow
down from a typical unit. Generally the steam used for cooking purpose is at temperature of
180 deg C and 3.5 kg/cm2 of pressure. Once the agro residue is cooked in digester the
material is taken out by blowing down the digester. For digester blow down, pressurized
backwater is used. Since the digester is in a pressurized state, entire content blows out from
the digester. At this moment the condensate present flashes and gets converted to steam,
which is vented to the atmosphere. The schematic diagram for the present system is shown in
figure below:

The flash steam from digester is not clean; hence it cannot be recovered with a thermo
compressor to use for other heating purposes. However, this heat can be recovered to
generate hot water which in turn can be used for the lye mixture tank, potcher, showers, spray
showers, hydropulpers and other hot water requirement areas. At Muzaffarnagar, the average
energy charges considered for estimation of monetary savings are as follows:
Energy charges
Table 8 Energy Charges
S. No. Particular Energy Charges
1 Fuel Cost `2,707 per Tonne
2 Fuel Calorific Value 3,338 kCal/kg
3 Electricity Cost `3.91/kWh
These values have been determined on the basis of the average energy cost in the cluster.
1.3.2 Role in process
The Agro residue based paper mills use digester to cook the raw material. These digesters
are generally 14 feet to 16 feet in diameter. Bagasse and wheat straw are generally used as
raw material after de-pithing and/or cutting. The average cycle time of each digester is
approximately 11 - 12 hours. Generally the steam used for cooking purpose is at temperature
of 180 deg C and 3.5 kg/cm2 of pressure.
1.4 Baseline establishment for existing technology
1.4.1 Design and operating parameters
The fuel savings in consumption in boiler because of heat recovery from boiler blow down,
depends on the operating efficiency level, which in turn depends on following parameters
Quantity of raw material and chemicals with water input to digester
Temperature conditions of input feed
Steam pressure and pressure inside the digester
No. of batches per day and annual operating days
Boiler operating efficiency
Digester Blow Heat Recovery
14
Since the energy conservation measure is about recovery of heat from digester blow heat, all
the above mentioned parameters along with the will be used to determine the savings.
1.4.2 Operating efficiency analysis
The flash steam from digester is not clean, hence it cannot be recovered with a thermo
compressor to use for other heating purposes. However, this heat can be recovered to
generate hot water which in turn can be used for the lye mixture tank, potcher, showers, spray
showers, hydropulpers and other hot water requirement areas. It is recommended to install a
heat recovery tank for collecting a flash steam and the hot water can be used in process. The
proposed system is represented in the figure below.
Figure 7 Proposed Digester Blow Heat Recovery System
Detailed parameters and calculations used for estimation of energy saving are given in the
Annexure 1.
1.5 Barriers in adoption of proposed equipment
1.5.1 Technological barrier
In Muzaffarnagar cluster, overall technical understanding on paper manufacturing is good and
rapidly increasing. However, majority of the entrepreneurs in paper cluster do not have any in
depth technical expertise and knowledge on energy efficiency. They are dependent on local
technology suppliers, service companies or limited in-house technical expertise, who normally
also rely on established and commonly used technology. The lack of technical know-how has
made it difficult for the paper unit owners to identify the most effective technical measures.

1.5.2 Financial barrier
The entrepreneur in Muzaffarnagar paper cluster typically makes investments related to
business perspective. They are comfortable investing on project expansion for improving the
production capacity as they consider it a more viable proposition as it clearly shows up in the
sales ledger. Further, the energy conservation activities not being a common practice in the
cluster makes them feel that it is not a viable proposition for investment. In view of this, and
given the limited financial strength of paper mill entrepreneurs, they would not take the risks
to invest in energy efficiency measures.
1.5.3 Skilled manpower
Skilled workers are locally available to run the paper mills in the cluster. However, there are
very few engineers employed in the mills and the production process remains traditional. This
is one of the lacunae of the Muzaffarnagar Paper Cluster.
Specialized and focused training of the local service providers on better operation and
maintenance of the equipments, importance of the energy and its use and energy
conservation measures will improve awareness among the unit owners and workforce.
Original equipment suppliers should also participate in these programs.
1.5.4 Other barrier (If any)
Many of the new technology provider‟s (especially some foreign technology leaders) have not
shown keen interest in implementation of their new innovative technologies. This appears to
be because of fear of duplication.
